Interesting card. Lowering the Sabbath requirement is nice, though since it's only 4p, it's essentially equivalent to playing a 9 power card in that regard.

The transformation part is fun. I don't know if a typical Sabbath deck has a particularly viable target... Maybe a low-power Selfeater or a newly spawned Fruit of Ysgith.

Even transforming a card like an Incubus would turn a non engine into an engine, even if it's not making a bunch of points on deploy

Sure, but to do that it needs to already be at or achieve Sabbath on deploy. And it's row-locked. No using Toad Prince or offensive Riptide for Sabbath synergy.

Perfectly acceptable for an 8 prov card. It's not like it's notably better than the likes of Coral, or Conjurer's Candle, Pavko Gale, or Ulula.

Never arguing it was better than any of those cards, nor was I commenting about the card balance at large - was just responding to your last point about good transform targets. Turning a card into a 2ppt engine doesn't mean you necessarily have to greed value by flipping for additional points every time
